How do I check whether a field has changed during an edit session?

Assuming the field you want to check is named Field1, add a hidden Calculated for Display item named OldField1 with the formula:

@If(@IsDocBeingLoaded; Field1; OldField1)

This has to be placed above the Field1 field on the form. In the formula for Field1, put in:

@If( @IsDocBeingSaved;
  @If( Field1 <> OldField1; 
    <Saving and it HAS changed>;
    <Saving but it has NOT changed> );
   <Not saving yet!> )
